How do I find out if a process is running if I have the process Name?

Hi,
This is not necessarily a Cocoa question, but this is for a Cocoa App. I have done a search for this, and have tried to figure this. But what I need to do is, given a process name (Application or other type), how can I find out if that process is running. Because if it is running already I need to do something different. I know this sounds weird, but if I was to explain the whole story behind this, it would take way to long. I thought this would be pretty easy to figure out, but I have not found anything yet.



Thanks, Scott Mitchell Senior Macintosh Software Engineer Excelsior Software http://www.excelsiorsoftware.com
